'''Throne Room''' is an [[Action]] card from the [[Base]] set. It allows you to play another Action card from your hand twice, as if you had a {{Card|Village}} and two copies of that Action card. It's great when you have lots of Action cards and are sure you'll be able to draw Throne Room in hand with a good Action, but be careful—if you buy it too early, or when you have too many [[Treasure]] and [[Victory]] cards and not enough Action cards, you'll have no Actions to play with it and it'll be a [[dead]] card!

* You pick another Action card in your hand, play it, and play it again. The second use of the Action card doesn't use up any extra Actions you have.
+
* Playing an Action card from your hand is optional. If you do play one, you resolve it completely, then play it a second time.  
−
* You completely resolve playing the Action the first time before playing it the second time.
+
* You cannot play other cards in-between (unless told to by the card, such as with {{Card|Vassal}} or Throne Room itself).  
−
* If you Throne Room a Throne Room, you play an Action, doing it twice, and then play another Action and do it twice; you do not resolve an Action four times.
+
* Playing Action cards with Throne Room is just like playing Action cards normally, except it does not use up Action plays for the turn. For example if you start a turn by playing Throne Room on {{Card|Village}}, you would draw a card, get +2 Actions, draw another card, and get +2 Actions again, leaving you with 4 Actions.  
−
* If you Throne Room a card that gives you +1 Action, such as {{Card|Market}}, you will end up with 2 Actions left afterwards, which is tricky, because if you'd just played Market twice you'd only have 1 Action left afterwards. Remember to count the number of Actions you have remaining out loud to keep from getting confused!
+
* If you Throne Room a Throne Room, you may play an Action card twice, then may play another Action card twice; you do not play one Action card four times.
−
* You cannot play any other Actions in between playing the Throne Roomed Action twice.

When you play Throne Room you MUST pick an action from your hand to play twice if you have any actions in your hand; you can't choose not to.  
+
* If you use Throne Room to play a card that removes itself from [[in play|the play area]], such as {{card|Horse}} from the {{set|Menagerie}} expansion, Throne Room will still play the card a second time. It will not return to the play area, due to the [[stop-moving rule]]; but the card's abilities still take effect as usual. This is a general rule that applies to all "[[Throne Room variant]]s" that play the same card multiple times on a turn.
 +
** However, if the card is worded in such a way that some of its abilities are ''contingent'' on the card leaving the play area, such as {{card|Mining Village}} or {{card|Madman}}, those abilities do not get activated a second time; the card has already moved to wherever it's going, so it can't go there again the second time to reactivate the effect.
 +
* If you use Throne Room to play a [[Duration]] card, the Throne Room also stays in play until you discard the Duration card. This enables you to track the fact that the Duration card was played multiple times. Even if only one play of the Duration card is keeping it in play, such as using Throne Room on {{Card|Gear}} and only setting aside cards one of the times, Throne Room stays in play with it. If the Duration card leaves play without being discarded (e.g. because you played it with {{Way|Way of the Horse}} on one of its plays), Throne Room is discarded the turn the Duration card leaves play, even if the Duration card has not finished doing things.
 +
* Throne Room plays a card twice; it does not double the effects of a card. It is possible that the card played by Throne Room does different things each time it's played.
  
−
When you play Throne Room and choose to target a [[Duration]], the Throne Room stays out in play with the Duration that it affects. If you Throne Room a Throne Room which affects a Duration, the top-level Throne Room does not stay in play and gets cleaned up during the Clean-up phase of the turn.
+
==First edition==
 +
In the first edition of Dominion, using Throne Room's ability was mandatory if Throne Room was played. [[Donald X. Vaccarino]] revised the card because that offered no provision for keeping the player honest: if a player claimed that they had no Actions in hand, and that was why they weren't activating Throne Room's ability, there was no way for their opponents to verify that this was the case.
  
−
Remember that Throne Room does NOT "double" a card - it simply makes you play it twice. It may have different effects the first and second time it is played, so remember to follow all the instructions on the card fully from top to bottom, and then go back and follow them a second time.
+
The first-edition card text could sometimes have adverse effects in a chain of stacked Throne Rooms and draw cards: if you Throne Room a Throne Room, by the time you play the second Throne Room a second time, you might have Actions in hand that you don't want to play. Under the first-edition card text, you would be forced to play one of them (twice) anyway; in the second edition, you don't have to if you don't want to.

There is no strategy article on Throne Room.
+
Throne Room is a flexible card that can be a source of [[Village (card category)|+Actions]], [[draw]], or [[payload]]. Throne Room depends on having other [[Action]] cards in hand, so it's better when your deck has a high density of Action cards. Therefore, Throne Room is less good early in the game, in games where you can't get rid of your starting cards, and in games without Action payload.
  
−
Throne Room is a powerful addition to most decks with a high action density. It's weak in games where you might draw it without any good actions. It typically not a good buy on turn 1 or 2, since you won't yet have good actions to Throne Room.
+
Throne Room is an unusual source of +Actions. Using Throne Room to play an Action card twice nets you one more Action than you would have if you played two copies of that Action card. For example, playing two {{card|Laboratory|Laboratories}} leaves you with the same number of Actions you started with (netting +0 Actions). Throne Room playing Laboratory nets you +1 Action—if you started with 1 Action, you would end with 2. Playing two copies of a [[terminal]] Action such as {{card|Smithy}} costs 2 Actions; Throne Room playing a Smithy draws the same number of cards but costs only 1 Action.
−
=== Throne room as a village ===
+
−
In the presence of cards that give +1 action, a Throne Room can be used as a makeshift Village. [[Cantrips]] are especially useful to this end, as they replace the two cards played, leaving an additional +2 Actions.
+
  
−
In some cases, the combination of Throne Room and cards giving +1 action can be used to construct a viable [[engine]] that would normally require villages, on boards without any villages. As with most engines, trashing is important.
+
Using Throne Room to play a Throne Room does not increase the number of Action cards you can double-play, but it does grant +1 net Action. For example, using Throne Room to play Throne Room to play two {{Card|Laboratory|Laboratories}} grants +3 net Actions. Chaining Throne Rooms in this way is especially useful with [[terminal draw]] cards. You can start a turn by playing Throne Room playing Throne Room playing {{Card|Smithy}}, at which point you draw 6 cards and then can duplicate one more Action card from your hand. If you can play a non-terminal Action, you can continue playing more Action cards after that. You can even continue the chain of alternating Throne Rooms and terminal Actions. Throne Room is a very efficient source of +Actions in decks with strong non-terminal cards like {{Card|Laboratory}}. With mostly terminal Actions, Throne Room is more awkward. You generally need two Throne Rooms and a terminal draw card in your starting hand to be able to fully exploit your deck’s capabilities, and your deck is more fragile as a result. For that reason, Throne Room benefits from an alternative source of +Actions, especially one that carries over to the next turn, such as [[Villagers]] or {{card|Fishing Village}}.
−
=== Throne room as a replacement for cards that run out ===
+
−
In some games, there is a race to grab certain cards before the pile empty, like {{Card|Minion}}, {{Card|City}}, or {{Card|Grand Market}}, cards that you want to play as many copies of as possible per turn. If the density of these cards in your deck is high enough and your deck sufficiently thin that you draw one of these cards each turn, Throne Rooms can act as a "substitute" for these power cards. This benefit is especially useful because you can pick up the Throne Rooms for cheaper than the desirable cards.
+
  
−
=== Synergies/Combos ===
+
Throne Room can duplicate the on-play effect of any Action card, so it varies in strength based on the Action cards in the kingdom. Using Throne Room on cheaper Action cards such as {{card|Merchant}} or {{card|Village}} is okay, but Throne Room is even stronger when you can use it to double-play cards such as {{card|Artisan}} and {{Card|Laboratory}} that are both more expensive to gain and more impactful on play. Some cards have effects that don’t stack, e.g. draw-to-X cards such as {{card|Library}}) and certain [[Attack]]s (e.g. {{card|Militia}}), so using Throne Room on them has little to no value. Strong [[Duration]] cards such as {{card|Wharf}} can be good targets for Throne Room, but be aware that the Throne Room will stay in play with the Duration card, meaning that you can’t play the Throne Room on the next turn.
−
* Desirable [[cantrips]] make a Throne Room more likely to function as a Village, and reduce the risk of drawing the card dead.  
+
−
* Strong trashing like {{Card|Chapel}} helps line up Throne Room with good targets.

=== The Throne Room Variations ===
+
−
Donald X posted his thoughts on combos with the [[Intrigue]] cards:
+
−
{{Quote|
+
−
|Text=
+
−
{{Card|Baron}}: With two {{Card|Estate|Estates}} in hand, that's {{Cost|8}} right there. Baron can offer you the chance to buy {{Card|Province|Provinces}} at earlier points in the game than you're used to - as soon as turn three, off of a Baron / Silver start. Do you actually want a turn three Province? Well, sometimes...
+
  
−
{{Card|Bridge}}: This is one of the ones you really want to Throne Room. One of my playtesters had a turn that went, Throne Throne, first Throning Bridge, then Throning Bridge... buy 5 {{Card|Minion|Minions}}. Minion costs {{Cost|5}}. Maybe it's a better story if you know what all these cards do. Anyway Throne Room / Bridge, that's one people really go for.
+
Throne Room offers a lot of flexibility, both during a single turn and throughout the game. Within a single turn, you can use early Throne Rooms to help you draw your deck, and later ones to amplify your Action payload. As the game progresses, you can adjust the number of Throne Rooms you use on drawing cards to adapt to the number of [[stop card]]s in your deck. Throne Rooms also allow you to pivot strategies more easily as the game proceeds. For instance, playing multiple {{Card|Witch|Witches}} early in the game allows you to attack your opponents more quickly, but {{Card|Witch}} becomes much less useful after the {{Card|Curse}} pile empties. Using Throne Room, you can duplicate the Attack of a single {{Card|Witch}} early on, and then choose to play Throne Room with other cards later, allowing you to avoid having to gain multiple {{Card|Witch|Witches}}. In games with an important Action card whose pile might empty, Throne Room can allow you to play additional copies, enabling you to prioritize other objectives over ensuring you get enough copies of that card.
  
−
{{Card|Conspirator}}: Throne gets you all the way there. You played Throne Room, that's one action; you play Conspirator, that's a 2nd action; Throne makes you play Conspirator a 2nd time, that's your 3rd action, so you get your +1 Card +1 Action from Conspirator.

Well late in development there was a game where no-one fought me for the Throne Rooms and I had a turn where I chained 6 of them. "I play Throne Room. First I Throne Room a Throne Room; for that one first I Throne Room a Smithy, then a Throne Room; for that one first I Throne Room a Throne Room..." I had a big cloud of actions on the table (we use a binary tree in these ridiculous situations). It's not just powerful; it's messy. I thought, hmm, maybe this could stand being 4 after all. It makes it just a bit harder to get a million of them; you don't go, "Market, buy two Throne Rooms" nearly as often. There was some worry that now there weren't enough {{Cost|3}}'s, but we decided we could live with just having four. There's Silver at {{Cost|3}}, so it's fine to sometimes deal out a random 10 and not get a {{Cost|3}}.

You may play an Action card from your hand twice.

Throne Room is an Action card from the Base set. It allows you to play another Action card from your hand twice, as if you had a VillageVillage.jpg and two copies of that Action card.

Cards similar to Throne Room are often called Throne Room variants.

[edit] FAQ

[edit] Official FAQ

  • Playing an Action card from your hand is optional. If you do play one, you resolve it completely, then play it a second time.
  • You cannot play other cards in-between (unless told to by the card, such as with VassalVassal.jpg or Throne Room itself).
  • Playing Action cards with Throne Room is just like playing Action cards normally, except it does not use up Action plays for the turn. For example if you start a turn by playing Throne Room on VillageVillage.jpg, you would draw a card, get +2 Actions, draw another card, and get +2 Actions again, leaving you with 4 Actions.
  • If you Throne Room a Throne Room, you may play an Action card twice, then may play another Action card twice; you do not play one Action card four times.

[edit] Other rules clarifications

  • If you use Throne Room to play a card that removes itself from the play area, such as HorseHorse.jpg from the MenagerieMenagerie (expansion).jpg expansion, Throne Room will still play the card a second time. It will not return to the play area, due to the stop-moving rule; but the card's abilities still take effect as usual. This is a general rule that applies to all "Throne Room variants" that play the same card multiple times on a turn.
    • However, if the card is worded in such a way that some of its abilities are contingent on the card leaving the play area, such as Mining VillageMining Village.jpg or MadmanMadman.jpg, those abilities do not get activated a second time; the card has already moved to wherever it's going, so it can't go there again the second time to reactivate the effect.

The first-edition card text could sometimes have adverse effects in a chain of stacked Throne Rooms and draw cards: if you Throne Room a Throne Room, by the time you play the second Throne Room a second time, you might have Actions in hand that you don't want to play. Under the first-edition card text, you would be forced to play one of them (twice) anyway; in the second edition, you don't have to if you don't want to.

[edit] Strategy

Throne Room is a flexible card that can be a source of +Actions, draw, or payload. Throne Room depends on having other Action cards in hand, so it's better when your deck has a high density of Action cards. Therefore, Throne Room is less good early in the game, in games where you can't get rid of your starting cards, and in games without Action payload.

Throne Room is an unusual source of +Actions. Using Throne Room to play an Action card twice nets you one more Action than you would have if you played two copies of that Action card. For example, playing two LaboratoriesLaboratory.jpg leaves you with the same number of Actions you started with (netting +0 Actions). Throne Room playing Laboratory nets you +1 Action—if you started with 1 Action, you would end with 2. Playing two copies of a terminal Action such as SmithySmithy.jpg costs 2 Actions; Throne Room playing a Smithy draws the same number of cards but costs only 1 Action.

Using Throne Room to play a Throne Room does not increase the number of Action cards you can double-play, but it does grant +1 net Action. For example, using Throne Room to play Throne Room to play two LaboratoriesLaboratory.jpg grants +3 net Actions. Chaining Throne Rooms in this way is especially useful with terminal draw cards. You can start a turn by playing Throne Room playing Throne Room playing SmithySmithy.jpg, at which point you draw 6 cards and then can duplicate one more Action card from your hand. If you can play a non-terminal Action, you can continue playing more Action cards after that. You can even continue the chain of alternating Throne Rooms and terminal Actions. Throne Room is a very efficient source of +Actions in decks with strong non-terminal cards like LaboratoryLaboratory.jpg. With mostly terminal Actions, Throne Room is more awkward. You generally need two Throne Rooms and a terminal draw card in your starting hand to be able to fully exploit your deck’s capabilities, and your deck is more fragile as a result. For that reason, Throne Room benefits from an alternative source of +Actions, especially one that carries over to the next turn, such as Villagers or Fishing VillageFishing Village.jpg.

Throne Room can duplicate the on-play effect of any Action card, so it varies in strength based on the Action cards in the kingdom. Using Throne Room on cheaper Action cards such as MerchantMerchant.jpg or VillageVillage.jpg is okay, but Throne Room is even stronger when you can use it to double-play cards such as ArtisanArtisan.jpg and LaboratoryLaboratory.jpg that are both more expensive to gain and more impactful on play. Some cards have effects that don’t stack, e.g. draw-to-X cards such as LibraryLibrary.jpg) and certain Attacks (e.g. MilitiaMilitia.jpg), so using Throne Room on them has little to no value. Strong Duration cards such as WharfWharf.jpg can be good targets for Throne Room, but be aware that the Throne Room will stay in play with the Duration card, meaning that you can’t play the Throne Room on the next turn.

Throne Room offers a lot of flexibility, both during a single turn and throughout the game. Within a single turn, you can use early Throne Rooms to help you draw your deck, and later ones to amplify your Action payload. As the game progresses, you can adjust the number of Throne Rooms you use on drawing cards to adapt to the number of stop cards in your deck. Throne Rooms also allow you to pivot strategies more easily as the game proceeds. For instance, playing multiple WitchesWitch.jpg early in the game allows you to attack your opponents more quickly, but WitchWitch.jpg becomes much less useful after the CurseCurse.jpg pile empties. Using Throne Room, you can duplicate the Attack of a single WitchWitch.jpg early on, and then choose to play Throne Room with other cards later, allowing you to avoid having to gain multiple WitchesWitch.jpg. In games with an important Action card whose pile might empty, Throne Room can allow you to play additional copies, enabling you to prioritize other objectives over ensuring you get enough copies of that card.

[edit] Secret History

For most of its life this card cost $3. My feeling was that you didn't want to buy two on turns 1 and 2, and probably didn't want to buy one on either of those turns (except with the FeastFeast.jpg combo). Later in the game it doesn't matter as much whether it costs $3 or $4. So why not $3? In general, if a card can be cheaper, I make it cheaper. I want the cards as cheap as possible without breaking the game, rather than as expensive as possible without going unplayed. So, I knew Throne Room was good, but it seemed like $3 was okay.

Well late in development there was a game where no-one fought me for the Throne Rooms and I had a turn where I chained 6 of them. "I play Throne Room. First I Throne Room a Throne Room; for that one first I Throne Room a Smithy, then a Throne Room; for that one first I Throne Room a Throne Room..." I had a big cloud of actions on the table (we use a binary tree in these ridiculous situations). It's not just powerful; it's messy. I thought, hmm, maybe this could stand being 4 after all. It makes it just a bit harder to get a million of them; you don't go, "Market, buy two Throne Rooms" nearly as often. There was some worry that now there weren't enough $3's, but we decided we could live with just having four. There's Silver at $3, so it's fine to sometimes deal out a random 10 and not get a $3.
